What are Clickers?

Clickers, also known as student or classroom response systems, are small remote devices that allow students or members of an audience to make selections from a list of possible answers or submit a short answer to a question. The responses are collected electronically and can be displayed as part of a presentation and recorded for grading purposes. They can be used for quizzing or polling an audience.

While there are a number of products on the market, OpenEd supports and provides technical training for the i>Clicker system. i>Clicker reports and registrations can be integrated with your CourseLink (D2L) grade book.

How can I start using them?

Contact the University Bookstore to place an order if you want your students to use i>Clickers in your course. Sufficient numbers of clickers for the class must be ordered in advance. Please allow at least four weeks for delivery to ensure the clickers are available for students to purchase at the beginning of the semester.

Students can be required to purchase i>Clickers for your class and can be used for assessment purposes. See the University's Ancillary Fee policy for details. Please note that it's important to inform students in advance that i>Clickers are required for the course. You should also indicate how they will be used and whether or not they will be included in the course evaluation.

Where do instructors get i>Clicker classlists?

To grade i>Clicker participation from your students, you need to match the students in your course with their i>Clicker registrations. Classlists are available at the CourseLink i>Clicker classlist tool.
